I participated in a wonderful fundraiser for Ottawa Valley Wild Bird Care Centre with this painting. Painting found a wonderful home.

Looking Back at the 30/30 challenge. All 30 paintings to view in one glance! I would like to thank Leslie Saeta for hosting this challenge. There were 1483 artists around the world who participated in this challenge. Really impressive!
This was my first time participating in this challenge. If I do it again, I will definitely paint at least one day before. So many times I finished after midnight. But it was fun! Thanks for hanging out with me this month and thanks for all the support, comments and likes on my Facebook page and here.

Day 30 of the 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge. I made it!!!! This is the first time I took the challenge, well, this is the first time since I left the corporate world working 10 hours a day. It would have been impossible while still working. I will make a collage of all 30 paintings tomorrow. I am glad I did it.

Day 29 of the 30/30 Challenge. Exhausted, but still hanging in there.

Day 28 of the 30/30 challenge. Same subject as yesterday. I will have to work a little bit more on this one.

Day 27 of 30/30 Challenge
Getting to the end of the challenge. 3 days left.

Photo courtesy of my cousin Daniela Bartosova. I wanted to paint a little bit older "child" today. Quite happy, although it is really late at night.

Day 25 of the 30/30 Challenge
I am binge listening to Leslie Saeta's blog radio show "Artists Helping Artists" and having fun. So many great ideas, interviews....
This painting is of my grandson who was running away from me the whole time we went for a "walk". That was a few year back, but I only decided to paint it just before Christmas and I was going to paint it on a 40 x 40 canvas. Of course, other things got in a way and I started, but never finished. So today I decided to paint it in a small 12 x 9 format and I am quite happy with it.

Day 24 of the 30/30 challenge
It was quite enjoyable painting this adorable child.

Day 23 of 30/30 Challenge.
Today I actually finished before midnight, unbelievable. I was very happy to paint a face a little bit bigger than 2 cm. Very handsome young man. Photo is from my friend and this is her grandson. What to paint tomorrow? Would be nice to paint a winter scene or an adult, but I am sticking to my theme. So it will be a child again.
